Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) - user opinions and reviews
- HP
- UFLT
I bought A5 2016 in April 2016 and was using fine until today when it started showing message "Device Overheating" "Unable to open applications, you can only use the phone and contacts applications." After this message phone switches off automatically. Also both my soft buttons are disabled; they don't light up and doesn't respond. I have done the factory reset of the phone and the issue still persist. The frustrating thing is the device actually doesn't feel hot at all. I kept the phone switched off for a few hours to let it cool just in case but after turning it on again the message shows up again in just a few minutes and the phone shuts down. This whole thing just started today only. I can see quite a few people have reported this on this forum in last couple of days. Could this be related to any software updates or anything similar? Can someone please confirm?

Ron, 24 Feb 2017I do Not have ONLY LTE option in my network selectionYou will not find any VoLTE option in network in any Samsung devices. I have noticed it in 4G Samsung devices. But I still use VoLTE using JIO 4G calling app in India. I don't know about other countries and models. But you can try it with viber or other net calling app like whatsapp.
